Yuyi understood the meaning, raised her head, and her eyes became bigger.

"As annoying as it is to be manipulated by the emperor, things are things."

"Mr. Renault!" Yuyi rushed over from the side, and Renault shook the carriage vigorously in surprise.

"You, you idiot!" he shouted.

"Yes, I'm sorry!" Yuyi blushed and let go hurriedly.

Renault sighed dumbly, and his ears turned red. Then, he quietly stared at the flowing ground and muttered in a low voice: "I hope I can catch up."

The sound was drowned out by the sound of horses' hooves and wheels, and did not reach Yuyi's ears.

Morning fog enveloped the place where the two knights stood. This is in the forest, and there is a campsite behind them.

A knight who looked tired yawned, and another warned: "Hey! The leader is here too. What if he sees him?"

Facing the knight who complained softly, the yawning knight waved his hand and said, "I'm sorry."

After a moment of silence, the yawning knight opened his mouth again and said, "Hey, have you seen the princess?"

The knight in question stared back, still looking listless: "No."

"The leader and his attendant, Mr. William, were also guarded by the Emperor Yan, so we were not able to see them in the end."

"Yes, me too," the knight said.

"She was among the general crowd before, maybe I've seen her too?"

"Well, it's not impossible."

"Hey, what if we're acquaintances?"

"Uh, I don't know. There's probably nothing that can be done. She's a princess after all."

"What if it's 'Sylph's' mother?"

"It's impossible because of her age! She's over 50 years old!"

As they spoke, the two laughed and had a joking conversation.

Suddenly a voice came from behind: "What are you excited about?" The two of them did not look back and kept standing upright.

"While it's nice to talk, it's work time."

"Hug, sorry! Captain!" The two of them turned around quickly and saluted the frowning Sirius.

Sirius looked at the two of them and expressed his helplessness with "really".

"Well, we should have arranged a formal occasion before announcing it. It is a bit pitiful to escort a faceless stranger, but we are the 'Knights of the Kingdom'. Don't forget to show a firm attitude."

"Yes!"

Sirius nodded and turned his gaze to the backs of the two men, who also followed their gaze and turned back again.

The sound of a carriage creaking.

Look carefully, and from the depths of the road, two carriages are speeding towards you.

"They are coming," Sirius said. As they got closer, they noticed that the person holding the reins in front of them was a familiar gray-haired boy.

"Hi, long time no see, Mr. Sirius." Renault smiled and raised his arms.

"Long time no see. I heard that you are still very violent. Rumors about you have been spreading to me, Renault."

The two knights exchanged glances and looked at Renault and Sirius. One of them muttered: "What happened to the 'God of Destruction'?"

Just when Sirius was about to speak, he noticed a sleeping figure next to Renault with his pillow on his shoulder. That was Yuyi.

Seeing Renault discovering Yuyi, Sirius's eyes became very gentle for some reason.

"Anyway, let's go in first. The princess is waiting." Sirius said and began to lead the carriage forward.

Renault was taken to a well-arranged tent located in the center of the wild palace, led by Sirius. This tent was extremely large, and Renault and others entered it at Sirius's urging.

Inside the tent, there was a young woman sitting. She was wearing a blue dress with the same color as her hair, and her face was covered with a veil.

Next to her stood a store manager wearing light armor, Ivan, who always had a lazy expression, and Leot, who was wearing armor.

"Long time no see, everyone." A familiar female voice came. Renault and others looked at each other and laughed.

"Miss Lena, long time no see." Renault said in his usual tone, but Helene patted his head from behind: "You idiot! It's Princess Alice! Do you know how to observe etiquette?"

"It's really annoying, but it doesn't matter. There's no one I don't know anyway." Renault replied nonchalantly.

The female Lena looked at this scene and giggled: "Anyway, can you call me Alice here?" Lena asked.

Renault replied: "Okay, okay." As a result, Helene patted her head again.

"Mr. Renault is still the same." Lena smiled again.

At this time, there was someone staring closely at the store manager, and that was Ryan. The store manager noticed Ryan's gaze and smiled slightly.

"The store manager is worried, has anything changed?" Nia suddenly spoke. Everyone froze and looked at Nia.

"Is it really so obvious?" the store manager replied with a wry smile, and Renault also crossed his arms: "I don't want to say it, but it does feel disharmonious."

"If you don't want to say it, then don't say it! I've felt it a long time ago." At this time, Leot, who had been silent, became impatient and said.

"For those who know Mr. William, this is an overwhelmingly exciting event."

"By the way, Mr. Sirius." Leot looked at Sirius.

"That's right. Although their physical strength has not yet been restored, as long as they see you, the morale of the knights will increase. This is also a strategy."

"Mr. Sirius, that last sentence was not very polite, was it?" Everyone laughed after hearing the conversation.

However, Sirius did not laugh. He continued: "Your coming here means that we can enter the imperial territory, right?"

Renault's face darkened and his smile disappeared: "Before talking about this, I would like to ask first. Is the number of soldiers less than expected?"

After hearing this, everyone on Lena's side, including Sirius, showed embarrassed expressions.

"Actually, we couldn't muster enough people." Leot replied.

"What's the situation now?"

"The Knights dispatched 3000 people, and there were about 1000 adventurers from the guild."

"There are only 4000 people in total, which is too few."

"The numbers have been gathered."

"Where's the old man?"

"They are heading to nearby checkpoints to pick them up. The same goes for other places."

The empire's checkpoints are located on the border, which means they spread out their troops, and those here are only part of them. Renault nodded, maybe this is already a pretty good force.

Renault continued, "Today, we attack Kelan."

"What do you think?" Sirius asked.

"Failure is inevitable. Although we cannot completely predict it, the possibility of failure is very high." Renault's words made everyone frown.
